HP POST- Evil Harry?
EVIL HARRY?
Harry Potter. The Chosen
One. What if he had turned on to his dark side? What if he would’ve given up
and joined You-Know-Who? And what if he wasn’t the savior of the Wizarding
World?
WHAT IF IT WAS
SLYTHERIN HARRY?
Well, firstly, Hagrid played an
important role in influencing Harry. How? If he had not told Harry about the
house of Slytherin would generally be the house of evil wizards, probably, Harry
wouldn’t have pleaded the Sorting Hat to place him in Gryffindor and not Slytherin.
And if Hagrid wouldn’t have done that, Harry would never really get that close
to Ron and Hermione, which meant he would try to be friends with people like
Malfoy, obviously making him ever so slightly malevolent.
WHAT IF HARRY HAD
GIVEN UP HOPE?
Harry giving up hope. Sounds very unbearable, doesn’t it? But think
about it, Harry had suffered since his childhood. First, his parents die. Then,
he is treated badly by the Dursleys. After that, Voldemort tries to kill him. And
still, everyone offends him and Dumbledore, when they’re onto the path of the
Greater Good. See? What if Harry had got under pressure and joined the dark
side? Then, of course, maybe the Wizarding World would be under the reign of
evil, and conditions would be glum and wretched for everyone.
WHAT ABOUT HORCRUXES?
Now, here’s the maddening part. If Harry—under pressure—would
have given up hope, he would most probably try to tear his soul apart, so as to
make horcruxes. That would make him immortal and would’ve helped him fight Lord
Voldemort—and win. There, even harry would have found it easier, rather than to
go hunting for Horcruxes. I guess then, Voldemort and Harry would’ve ended up
killing each other.
WOULD HAVE
DUMBLEDORE TRIED TO MENTOR HARRY?
Well, I think probably no. Dumbledore
saw that exclusivity and spark in Harry when the Sorting Hat took Harry’s thought
into its account and sorted him into Gryffindor. But if Harry would’ve ended in
Slytherin with Malfoy, probably he would also be calling Dumbledore “an old
freak”. And of course seeing that and Harry’s indifference, Dumbledore would
have rather mentored Neville.
WOULD HE HAVE
DISLIKED UMBRIDGE?
Harry loathes Umbridge (just like
I do) throughout the story, but would he still have the same thoughts about her
if he was Slytherin and under Malfoy influence? Er. . Not so likely. Yeah,
I know that would be agonizing but then, that would be the reality. Probably, Harry
would have ended in Umbridge’s Inquisitorial Squad. .Or perhaps, voted for her
to be the Headmistress. Irritating, it is, right?
But fellow Potterheads, do NOT worry. Our hero will
always be OUR hero. Harry would have never done that to . . . to us? Ah, well, Harry
Potter will always; always be the savior of The Wizarding World . . .
and our lives. .
